Are you a white woman who would like to earn the trust of women of color so that we can secure our collective safety and freedom, but you don't know how?*
Becoming Trustworthy is for you if:
- You're heartbroken by racism, sexism, genocide, deportations, homophobia, transphobia, and ableism, feel stuck between outrage and inaction, and keep doomscrolling
- You work for a woman of color, work with women of color, or manage women of color, and some of your interactions cause sparks
- You long for authentic sisterhood with women of color but don’t want to cause harm or center yourself
- You see how white supremacy both hurts and benefits you, but don’t know what to do with your guilt and shame
- You are very concerned about the erosion of women's rights and the implications for yourself, all women, and future generations and you want to take meaningful action, and want to know specifically what to do
- You read antiracism books but don't have any meaningful relationships with women of color
- You're done sitting on the sidelines. You’re ready to show up with humility, courage, and clarity
By the end of the program, you’ll:
🌺 Understand what makes trust possible between white women and women of color
🌺 Learn how to manage guilt and fragility without getting stuck in shame
🌺 Gain skills to listen, repair, and connect without centering yourself
🌺 Build emotional resilience and relational readiness for this urgent moment
🌺 Join the Interracial Sisterhood Coalition, an online membership community for women doing real, uncomfortable, beautiful work
🌺 Have first priority to register for the next Interracial Sisterhood Retreat at the beautiful La Maison Michelle in Barbados November 6-11, 2025

Praise from past participants:
The psychological safety established by facilitators was remarkable, providing a platform where I, as a Global Majority woman with intersecting identities, felt genuinely seen and heard. The facilitators skillfully guided discussions, fostering an atmosphere where I felt comfortable supporting the learning journey of my white sisters. This exchange of perspectives allowed for a deepened awareness of the impact of choices in words, actions, and attitudes toward Global Majority women.

Sisterhood is a group of women, usually with a common interest, working together to support, uplift, empower, and bring out the best in one another. I've never been surrounded by more authenticity, vulnerability, and sheer passion than I was with these women. They helped reignite the fire within me to use my voice, loud and proud, to advance change. I can't think of a better group to call my Sisters and I'm so proud to stand in solidarity with them as we actively fight to dismantle white supremacy.

A world where all women stand tall, grounded in our power, and we all stand together is possible and we can co-create it.
The best time to plant a tree was twenty years ago. The second best is today.
